Amalia wrote that the unrest in France and, to a lesser extent, in Italy began as a student mobilization, which the state initially tolerated. She mentioned that she had seen the consequences on screens and personally. Regarding Greece, she argued that there were not real student mobilizations and accused leftist representatives of calling for the country to become like France. She wrote that an attempt the previous week was stopped due to rain and that it would be repeated the day after tomorrow. She also warned that if the government allowed widespread destruction with the expectation that public opinion would turn against the instigators, it could backfire. Amalia also noted that far-leftists had attempted to cause unrest in Spain, but the government of socialist Pedro Sánchez showed no tolerance. She claimed that the police used violence against the demonstrators and that no second attempt followed. She concluded by saying that Greece should, in her opinion, follow the Spanish example rather than the French or Italian. #Ελλάδα #Αναταραχή #Κοινωνία (translated)

Nikolas Apelaios II described the days leading up to the Italian attack on Greece, from October 23 to 27, 1940, stating that the Greek ambassador in Rome had informed the government that the attack was expected between October 25 and 28. According to him, Italian reconnaissance aircraft were photographing military points of interest, while senior Greek officials considered the attack imminent. Apelaios reported that on October 24, Ioannis Metaxas recorded in his diary rumors of an attack the next day and informed the chiefs of staff to remain in Athens or to notify where they were. On October 25, according to the post, Metaxas informed the Cabinet about the concentration of Italian troops at the border, and the government rejected both substantial territorial concessions and symbolic gestures toward Italy. He noted that Metaxas and his ministers did not attend the premiere of the opera "Madama Butterfly" at the Royal Theater on October 25, in the presence of Antonio Puccini and Curzio Malaparte. From the government, as he wrote, Deputy Foreign Minister Mavroudis and Deputy Minister of Press Nikolidis attended. The next day, Ambassador Politis reported that the Athens–Rome airline had been suspended until further notice. In his narrative, at the reception of the Italian embassy on October 26, Ambassador Grazzi was often absent, while on the upper floor the ultimatum to Greece was being dictated from Rome. Nikolidis called Metaxas early on October 27 regarding reports of incidents at the border. Apelaios noted that the Athens News Agency denied the news at 04:00, following an order from Metaxas. Apelaios also wrote that, on October 27, Greek and Italian officers met to discuss the incidents, while the Greek government was receiving information about the movements of Italian units towards the border. He added that shortly after Metaxas left his office, information arrived from the Italian embassy that a declaration of war was imminent, but it was decided not to inform him. According to him, the Prime Minister's car departed for Kifisia without him knowing the information. #Ιστορία #Ελλάδα #ΔεύτεροςΠαγκόσμιοςΠόλεμος (translated)

greyCorvus reported that he had spent eight years in a relationship with a woman who had bipolar disorder and that gradually, from being her partner, he took on the role of caregiver. He described how he experienced manic episodes, depression, and psychosis, as well as difficulties in communication with doctors and in dealing with treatments that he believed did not help his partner. He said he often felt unheard and that he had taken on excessive responsibility for her condition. On the occasion of World Mental Health Day, he noted that behind people with severe mental illness, there was a daily life that was often invisible to others, as well as a caregiver trying to cope. He urged psychiatrists to listen to those who live with the patients, stating that they may know aspects of the situation that the doctor does not have the opportunity to observe. He also encouraged them to consider pharmacological options flexibly and to utilize pharmacogenetic testing where appropriate. He mentioned that, under specific clinical conditions and with proper monitoring, methylphenidate (Ritalin) may be an option, while the enzymes CYP2D6 and CYP2C19 influence the metabolism of certain psychiatric medications. He clarified that the testing is not a magical solution but can provide useful knowledge. Finally, he stated that his partner had broken up with him because, as she believed, she did not want to ruin his life. #παγκοσμια_ημερα_ψυχικης_υγειας #ψυχικήυγεία #ψυχιατρική #διπολικήδιαταραχή (translated)

Amalia accused Russia of deliberately launching attacks against civilians in Ukraine, citing strikes on apartment buildings, schools, shopping centers, public transport, playgrounds, and bridges. She argued that most of the victims were Russian-speaking individuals in Eastern Ukraine and criticized those who, as she wrote, showed sensitivity towards Palestine and Iran in Greece, but not towards Ukrainians. Regarding the recent strikes, she mentioned that in Pryluky, Chernihiv Oblast, 22 civilians were killed, including 5 children—three of them one year old—and 54 were injured. For Kramatorsk in Donetsk Oblast, she wrote that two city buses were attacked and 33 people were killed, while the number of injured remained unknown. She added that 9 people were also killed in Kyiv, 2 in Kremenchuk, 2 in Konotop, 2 in Oleksandriia, and 1 in Zaporizhzhia, raising the death toll of civilian casualties over the two days to 71, according to her. Regarding the negotiations with U.S. intervention, Amalia claimed that Zelensky was accepting a ceasefire with the troops in their current positions and was asking for guarantees from the West. She stated that pro-Russian separatist forces controlled 60% of Donetsk Oblast before the Russian invasion of 2022, that since then the Russian army had captured an additional 20%, and that it had not managed to capture the remaining 20%. She asserted that Putin did not want a ceasefire, but a peace agreement that would require Zelensky to go to Moscow, the demilitarization of Ukraine, a constitutional commitment not to seek EU or NATO membership, and the recognition of the territories occupied by Russia since 2014, including Crimea. She added that Russia was also demanding the surrender of the remaining 20% of Donetsk Oblast that it had not captured. Amalia compared the situation to Cyprus, where, as she wrote, since August 1974 a ceasefire had been in effect under UN supervision, without a permanent peace agreement, because Turkey demanded recognition of the loss of territories and the pseudostate. She concluded that Russia sought, in her view, the humiliation of Ukraine and not peace. #Ουκρανία #Ειρήνη #Πόλεμος (translated)

Maryloo stated that, according to toxicological analyses, George Mazonakis had not used illegal drugs, such as cocaine, at least three days before his death. She claimed that the findings contradicted the accused doctor, who, according to her, had initially attributed the cardiac arrest to possible drug use. She added that the tests did not show classic addictive substances and that the only relevant findings were propofol and midazolam, which, as she wrote, were administered in the clinic to induce artificial intoxication during plasmapheresis. Maryloo argued that this shifted the responsibility to the medical actions of the day and noted that Gaga and the doctor were left speechless. #Μαζωνάκης #ναρκωτικά #ιατρική (translated)
